Pedru Poder
Veteran indie filmmaker, Ralph Arlyck, contemplates his own aging and tenuous purchase on earth, and that of his neighbors, in this surprisingly upbeat (and humorous) look at mortality. People talk or laugh about aging, its irritations and relentless progression, but rarely confront the reality of dying or being left alone. Nor do they consider the lightness and calmness that can come when the race seems not so crucial. I LIKE IT HERE is about all those things and, finally, about the pleasures of being alive. A figurehead of American independent documentary film, Ralph Arlyck conveys how it feels to look back on your own life, to contemplate your place in an ever-changing world, and what to make of the time that remains. —Author
